Is there any Yorick skin planned (are you even allowed to talk about this, dear Rito?)

I play Yorick since forever, and I love the rework, it really preserved the soul of Yorick while making him less toxic, however the fact stays that Yorick has got no skins for 6 years.

I recently bought Undertaker Yorick, but honestly even after rework both Yorick skins are pretty "meh". It's not that the artist did bad job, it's just that those skins don't really have much going on in them. They are both pretty, but at the same time they don't really feel like you have your champion skinned.

Poppy got an uber-cool skin soon after her rework, can Yorick player hope for anything finally too? I know there are a few of us, but still, Yorick only has release skins after 6 years.

Hey 2bad2badger!

In our recent State of Skins post, we committed to making new skins for several champions in the upcoming months, including Yorick. That's all the info we're sharing at the moment, but we'll be able to share more when it comes time to put him on PBE! :)

What the chocolate fudge? Poppy got her Star Guardian skin almost an entire year after her rework. What is this "soon after" nonsense?

Anyway, yes.

I feel like we're tackling some major pain points this year and feel confident committing to you that you will be receiving skins for Cassiopeia, Viktor, Yorick, Illaoi (and more) over the next 12 months.

Recent leak said Arcade Yorick soon. Although tbh that doesn't fit yorick AT ALL. At least it is something I guess.

Yoricks skin should be at least legendary tier given how long its been. Riot better not troll us with a 750 knock off, like warden yorick

It reasently got leaked that a arcade Yorik is in development (I'd love me some shovelknight), though nothing is confirmed. Also if the leak was real it is probably early in development, so it is posible that it gets canceled.

I've read online the idea for a gardener Yorick, credit to some guy named Cheesyleeks, where his ghouls are replaced with bees and he throws honey at people with his E to attract the bees to swarm and his ult summoned the queen bee. If that came into reality i might cry.

There was a recent leak, not sure if it was true, but if it was then yes yorick will be getting one.

Riot said that they will care now about champs that get no skins for a long time, but they wait until they got there reworked to make the skin much better. So I guess we will see a Yorick skin this year ( not arcade Yorick, the leak was a fake)

They said in the Skin Dev Blog that Yorick, among many other champions will get a skin within the next 12 months.
